Abstract
A clinical case of successful treatment of a patient with purulent sternomediastinitis that developed in the immediate postoperative period after performing cardiac surgery is presented. Early diagnosis of this formidable complication was carried out by performing multispiral computed tomography with 3D reconstruction. In the complex treatment of sternomediastinitis, the main role was played by stage-by-stage surgical treatment of wounds using vacuum therapy and topical application of epidermal growth factor. A clinical recovery has been achieved while maintaining a high level of quality of life for the patient.
